Hey there. My hubbie and I go to the movies a lot but there are not that many options for vegan snacks although I know some of the candy is vegan. Anything that people love to bring to the movies to snack on? Thanks!!!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately so.

I smuggle in my own popcorn in a big purse. And sometimes candy. My new fave candy bar is the brand Choco Love (I think)? dark chocolate with salted almonds....holy crepe, that is some kind of addictive candy bar.

Ugh, are you serious? I could've sworn someone on the PPK said they emailed the company and found out they were vegan. I apologize for misleading anyone.

Don't feel bad! There was a massive thread about it and everyone went out and ate them, but then it turned out that even though they got rid of the gelatin and egg whites, they're still made with shellac. Boo.

A vegan friend of mine who worked at a movie theatre once told me that movie theatre popcorn is pretty reliably vegan, because if it had dairy in it, they couldn't leave it sitting out overnight. The "extra butter" you can get added is not vegan, but the plain popcorn (according to my friend) is.

The "added butter" is even vegan at some theatres...because it's not butter, it's oil with flavoring in it. There are a few chains that are vegan that I read in a VegNews article once but I can't remember the names and don't want to tell you wrong.
